ABOUT GLOBAL FUTURE: Since 2006, Patrick Braden, Dr. Garcia, and Global Future’s member parents, whose children were kidnapped from the United States to Japan and other countries, have lobbied over 600 days on Capitol Hill and held over 2,000 meetings with the administration, members of Congress, law enforcement officials, and NGOs. Global Future’s efforts have been responsible for the passage of legislation, key public policy research, and improvements in the U.S. government’s handling of international kidnappings. Global Future parents assist new members in communicating with public officials and agencies, and with individual case management, protocols, and strategies. Global Future publishes and distributes various materials including our 32-page magazine American Citizen Children Kidnapped by Japan, which U.S. officials acknowledge as a very strong tool in their work on the international kidnapping issue.
